7
Q
  • Also known as light source.
  • A light that emits a SINGLE, INFINITELY SMALL POINT in space an radiates light equally in all directions.
  • We use this term instead of light source because “Not all objects emit light, but rather reflect or radiate light.”

8
Q
  • also known as BASE LINE.
  • Imaginary base line that is used to measure:
    “the angle of incidence of light as well as its corresponding behavior such as reflection and refraction.”
  • Used so that we can have accurate measurements.

A

INDEX OF REFRACTION

17
Q

TWO TYPES OF REFLECTION

A

SPECULAR AND DIFFUSE

18
Q

An incident ray traveling towards a smooth surface where it rays are going in the same direction.
Occurs at regular surface at regualr surfaces such as plane mirrors and form images

A

SPECULAR REFLECTION

19
Q

Any reflection that occurs at varying angles due to uneven reflective surface.

A

DIFFUSE REFLECTION

20
Q

“The incident ray and reflected ray lie in one plane at the point of incidence but on the opposite sides of the normal to the surface.” Law #?

21
Q

“The angle of incidence is equal to the angle of reflection” (<i = <r) Law #?

22
Q

A phenomenon where light, after being reflected off a surface, is directed back toward the source (or nearly back), regardless of the angle at which it originally arrived.

A

RETROREFLECTION

23
Q

“The lights are reversible and sometimes result in a phenomenon called RETROREFLECTION.” Law #?

24
Q

Ex. 1 Of instruments that applies this law 3

A

AUTOMATIC REFRACTOMETER

25
Ex. 2 Of instruments that applies this law 3
RETINOSCOPE
26
A kind of reflex that uses the law retroreflection
RED-ORANGE REFLEX
27
A plane sheet of glass whose one side is silvered and the other side is polished. Also known as the "LOOKING MIRROR"
PLANE MIRROR
28
Images with the ff: * same size as the objects * Lies at the same distance behind the mirror as the object is in front. * Virtually and laterally inverted (pre-verted). (Virtual - not real or actual) are formed by?
PLANE MIRROR
29
Parts of a HOLLOW SPHERE whose one side is silvered and the other is polished.
SPHERICAL MIRROR
30
Kinds of spherical mirrors
CONCAVE AND CONVEX
31
A curved mirror whose reflecting surface is TOWARDS the center of the sphere.
CONCAVE
32
A curved mirror whose reflecting is AWAY from the center of the sphere.
CONVEX
33
In prisms, when light passes through it, it bents from (BLANK) to (BLANK)
APEX, BASE
34
"In a homogenous transparent medium or VACUUM, light travels in a straight line." (Unless absorbed, refracted or reflected.)
RECTILINEAR PROPAGATION
35
A type of mirror that converge light rays
CONCAVE
36
A type of mirror that diverge light rays
CONVEX
